Perserverance And Determination

Perseverance and Determination
by Annie Tornabene

Have you ever wondered why some ignorant people become wealthy while many brilliant people remain poor…why many people work very hard and are broke while a few work effortlessly and generate millions? Do you have the perserverance and determination to do what you want?

There are 3 kinds of people in the world:
Those that MAKE Things Happen...They have perseverance and determination.
Those that WATCH Things Happen...They just need a blueprint for success or mentoring.
and Those that SAY "What Happened?...They don't have a clue as what is going on.
I want to make a difference.

Which type are you? There are those with perseverance and determination, who know what they want and understand their potential and the possibilities. They take life by the horns. They have perseverance and determination to do whatever it takes to be successful at whatever they choose.

There is a group of those who say "what happened?" who don't have a clue as what is going on. They allow circumstances to shape their lives and their self-image.

There are those who sit on the side lines wanting a better life, whose lives are just in need of a little help or adjustment to learn how to be a success. Maybe they've hit a bump or two that has knocked them off course temporarily. They have a burning perserveance and determination even when they hit a road bump. Oh sure, they may quit at times but it doesn't take much to get that spark from within burning again.

They just need some tweaking and mentoring to get them back on course. A blueprint for success might be nice. They may feel like giving up temporarily but their spirit comes back. The friends and relatives and loved ones of these people see that they are marching to a different drummer and wonder why they can't be satisfied, why they don't settle down. They wonder how people who have such obvious abilities and great potential can be in such chaos. Others don't understance how they can have such perserveance and determination in the face of adversity and odds. It is difficult for others to understand the rawness of the power of the dream. You and I know. We have been there.

Even though you have been hurt before, it is the only way to grow. We have to continue to test ourselves, reach for another inch. We all have the capacity to change, to lead meaningful and productive lives by awakening our consciousness.

We know there are going to be tough times as we go about changing our lives, so brace yourself and you will be able to handle them. When you get into your seat on an airplane, what is the first thing they tell you to do? Fasten your seat belt. Brace yourself for the turbulence. When you decide to move your life to the next level of accomplishment, you must fasten your mental and spiritual seat belts because it is going to be a while before you reach that comfortable level again. You will reach it, but you must endure the turbulence of change in order to grow. Then when we get there, we realize it was just a piece of cake. It helps drive you to the next level where we will face turbulence again.

Try this technique to help you through the difficult times of change and growth. Find four reasons why you cannot succumb to your fears and your troubles. Find those deep sources of motivation that can lift you out of the turbulence and rise above the storms. They give you perservance and determination. You need those deep reasons why you must continue on your journey...why you must fight for another inch. You must change your life because, for example: (Those empowering reasons) You have not yet reached your given talents. You want to leave a legacy for your children. You want to live life to the max rather than letting life live you. You want to do what makes YOU happy.

It is in these rocky early moments of bringing change to your life that you discover who you are. In the prosperous times, you build what is in your pocket. In the tough times, you strengthen what is in your heart. And that is when you gain insight into yourself, insight that leads to self-mastery and an expansion of your consciousness as a life-force in both your personal and professional lives. You learn what you are made of. You learn that you are stronger than you thought you were...you have more perservance and determination than you ever thought possible. In an attitude of gratitude, you realize how blessed you are to be where you are.

You can have anything in life you want as long as you have the right steps. 1-2-3 Some of us never had the road map or pathway for wealth. A lot of pent-up frustration poured out the day I realized I had the key to wealth, but there was also an avalanche of joyful tears as well. Needless to say, my life and my prosperity haven't been the same since.

As my awareness has grown, I can't help but notice the overwhelming number of people I encounter every day who are doing the very same things I did year after discouraging year. If you listen to the media, you hear about the financial crisis get worse year after year. The fact is, "97% of people are born, live and die without ever learning how to create wealth". Wealth can be learned.

Unfortunately, much of humanity is so focused on making money that it has lost sight of deeper purposes. Persons in or affiliated with traditional organizations are perhaps particularly adept at this focus on money, or, as we like to say, "the bottom line."

We are moving into a time (or maybe we are in it?) when we can more easily see the manifestations of our false beliefs. We are facing experiences that more easily teach us to tap into higher purposes and more empowering intention. We will surely get this teaching. "Wealth, Prosperity, Abundance," I want to define my terms. For me, each word connotes a different meaning and resonates to a different vibration.

Wealth is more than money. It's a mindset . . . it's a lifestyle . . . it's freedom in all areas of life. The only power money has is the power we give it. Prosperity means flourishing and thriving. We tend to equate prosperity with good fortune and success and affluence, the good things of life. Abundance is an overflowing supply, fullness. The Infinite Source is our supply.

The dichotomy of wealth and poverty is not merely an issue of distribution, but one of consciousness. We are moving into a new paradigm, a paradigm that includes the awareness and acknowledgement of Spirit.

Let's make the move consciously, joyfully, and abundantly in gratitude...More than enough exists in this world that is constantly expanding. If you would like more info or a free e-book on Abundant Living, send me your name and e-mail here.

Let's make a difference!
